The Reedy Point Players are pleased to announce OPEN CALL AUDITIONS for The Woman In Black! The Woman in Black, directed by Gail Wagner, is a ghost play which creates a tense and eerie world for the audience. The dark tale, told by Mr Kipps, with the help of an Actor, transports us back to Eel Marsh House where our visual and audio senses will be heightened in order to feel the supernatural atmosphere of the story.
